Most guests find the hotel's location suits their needs. It's handy for parents visiting students at the University of Vermont, as well as those in the area for business and leisure. There's a good choice of restaurants nearby and you can be at either the beach or the airport in under ten minutes.
Guests at the Holiday Inn Burlington particularly appreciate the on-site leisure facilities. Being able to use both indoor and outdoor pools, as well as a sauna, is a plus. And the fitness center, although quite small, has been recently renovated and offers extras such as spring water and iPhone/Pod docks.
All things considered, there's a feeling that guests enjoy good value for money at this hotel. The rates are certainly reasonable and the free Wi-Fi is a bonus. You will pay extra for parking and meals, but the costs are not typically seen to be excessive. Plus, the kids eat free program holds appeal for families.
Guests often comment that they found the bathrooms very small - so small that there is little counter space to store toiletries and personal items. A number of guests also state that cleanliness could be improved in the bathrooms.
While the hotel is not exactly falling apart, there are some minor maintenance issues to contend with. Many guests simply feel that the property could do with a lick of paint but other report specific concerns such as torn wallpaper, stained carpet, and poorly repaired holes in walls.
Feedback suggests that there are regular issues with the air-conditioning. Some guests found the units performed poorly while others had no air for their entire stay. The time between guests who report this issue indicates that it is an on-going problem.
